Hey guys I thought I'd post this so you could check it out. I'm building my brother's 98 240 that we have put a sr20 in. It's fully bolted catless DP, intercooler, custom stainless piping, apexi 3in exhaust, upgraded coilpacks, tubular exhaust manifold, crower cam gears, springs and cams, CP pistons, eagle rods, rocker arm stoppers and a microtech stand alone.





We picked up a Garrett GT2871r I think it's a little bit small for my tastes but I bought it for him and got a killer deal

We're gonna do some Candy Red paint on the valvecover and a balancer is in the plans as well

I'm looking to throw it in one of these weekends coming up here soon but I need to port my head and finish the LSJ gtx3076r swap as well so I'm kinda busy

 

Sub'd. My buddy has an sr20, it's badass.

 

Ya the car is really fun bumpy but fun. It sat for years and we took it out he bagged it pretty good and we broke 2 pistons

I forgot we are gonna run 555cc injectors but we have 800cc as well for when we wanna play!

 

Oh my buddy's 240 is only tuned for 265hp, not sure what his specs are in his engine, I just know it's a new engine basically lol.

 

Nice, that's going to be sick. Such a baby turbo though lol.

 

So he's prob on a t28. We're looking for 350 wheel this year and throw some meth at it and see what we can get!

 

Haha that it is! I took him for a rip in my car and he doesn't want it to be that fast but I've sold him on a 6758 he just wants it to run for a bit and he just put out thousands for the built engine

 

That's exactly what he's running, I remember him saying something with a t in front of it lol.

 

Haha well now that's a baby turbo!

 

What are the specs of that turbo? I'm curious

 

The T28 or 2871?

2871r

Turbo Compressor Turbine
Turbo PN CHRA PN Ind Whl Dia(mm) Exd Whl Dia(mm) Trim A/R Whl Dia(mm) Trim A/R
472560-15 446179-67 51.20 71.00 52 0.60 53.90 76 0.64

 

 

Here's mine

 

isn't that what they refer to as the disco potato? If so they are small but actually pretty potent like 350-400whp

 

Nope the disco potato is the gt2860rs smaller compressor wheel. We should be able to get 400whp from it if I can get him to run some meth

 

Well it's been just over a year since I last talked about this but I'm FINALLY throwing the heart back into my brother's 240!! I get my engine next week so I'm planning on having this done before next weekend.


First time she hasn't been home in at least 4 years

 

Gonna have to grab some turbo lines since we are swapping from stock t25 to a gt2871r and may need some custom pipes fabbed cause swapped from S13 Sr to a S14 Sr. If the used turbo is blown we're gonna throw a 76mm wheel it her

 

I was going to say how did i miss the thread lol

 

U missed cause I haven't had an update in a year!! So very sad cause such a sexy car!!

 

Me n my buddy are getting his 240 running at school. He just got it in there but his sprayed oil and coolant everywhere when he started it and let it idle. Idk if he had the right feed lines or what but he had oil underneath them. Also gotta drain the gas I think, it's been sitting for a year and it bogged out and died when he tried starting it after like 8 months of sitting. Changing fluids and checking all the lines once we get a lift at school. There's been construction going on in our work bays so we sat through book work and then worked on it outside. We're using the cheap version of the turbo Kevin's got going on this. The Isis 3871.

 

The ricer version

 

Everything I do is rice.

 

Haha yup! We were gonna buy one of those then I grabbed him the garrett

 

I'm a proud ricer lol

He just wants to drift this. It's not a race car.

 

Everyone asks Brad that and he's like hell no! It's way too sexy!
